Resumo. The aim of this work was to evaluate the in vitro productivity of grapia (Apuleia leiocarpa) micro-stumps cultivated in different media conditions to maximize its multiplication rate. Micro-stumps from aseptic seedlings were cultivated in WPM medium added with 0, 2.2, 4.4, 6.6 and 8.8 µM of 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP) and subcultured in WPM medium without cytokinin. Micro-stumps were also cultivated in WPM, MS or ½ MS base media with or without the addition of 1.5 g L-1 of activated charcoal and submitted to drastic pruning at 30, 60 and 90 days of cultivation. The in vitro cultivation of grapia micro-stumps in WPM or ½ MS media added with 8.8 µM of BAP and the subcultivation in media without cytokinin increase the number and length of shoots. The cultivation of grapia micro-stumps in media with activated charcoal increases the productivity of micro-cuttings per micro-stumps, but in the absence of activated charcoal induces callus formation and indirect organogenesis of shoots. The in vitro conservation of grapia microstumps maximizes the multiplication rate, being a feasible technique for the production of grapia plantlets.
